Pros

IBM in East Lansing provides a great flexible schedule. Individuals are able to work from home on Monday and Tueaday of each week if they live at least 45 miles away.

Cons

The biggest problem with this center is the poor pay. There is no reason why a company as big as IBM should be paying their employees 20K less than the state average for the same position.

Pros

The customers do appreciate the extra effort you put into helping them. Some of my customers and colleagues have turned into lifelong friends.

Cons

Myself and several other US located colleagues on our team got their jobs moved to either Ottawa, Canada or Eastern Europe. This was done to save IBM even more money, not due to lack of profitability in our department. One Third of IBM employees are in India or Bangladesh. This isn't an accident.
